How wazzit Tokul ?  Missed seeing Tamer this year though ....

We had a good turnout for the clinic and both calling contests (19 youths & 9 adults signed up).  About 40 to 50 in each of the 3 audience groups ... bit smaller than last year when we had 106 people that actually stayed throughout, but a good group none-the-less.

thanks John, I have a blast doing them even though I'm pretty nervous talking to a crowd. I hope that very year I can either help someone or give people a different perspective. Plus February is a great tim to talk turkey to get us fired up for april.

Nervous??? Always figured you liked to BS as many people as possible.  :lol4:
Just kidding Tamer !  It's especially rewarding when a "newbies" sends you pictures and/or an e-mail telling you about their hunt.   :twocents:

My 5th & last Spring Clinic was Saturday at Cabelas. I haven't had a chance to get out and scout (next chance is April 10th), so left the house really early to check out an Eastern spot at first light before having to setup and man our table for the day ... bingo, a dozen phantoms!!!  :whoo:

You know me I'll BS with the best of them but man when you got 100 pair of eyes staring at you it's a little intimidating. I've only been doing these for a couple years now, unlike you I'm still a greenhorn when it comes to that.

I said I left early and found them before going to Cabelas ... so just draw a circle 60+ miles from Gig Harbor and you'll be in the area ....  :chuckle:
